Well you have visited my first blog page. I am 29 years old, yup that's right I turn the big 3 0 in 6 months and 10 days. I moved to Michigan from Buffalo, New York when I was 23 for a job and planned to stay for 1 year. I met the man that I would eventually marry after being here for only 6 months he is Canadian. When we got married we had to choose where to live and we decided to make Michigan the place where we would start our lives together. We have been married now for 3 and half years. It has been a long and hard journey. When I made the choice to move here I did so knowing that it would be hard with no family or friends here. My husband and I bought our first home together about 3 years ago it in quiet community by the lake. This is where we met our "Michigan family". It is so nice to have family in Michigan too. It is amazing how your whole life changes by making one choice. I have 2 step children and a dog. My step daughter is 16 and my step son is 8. My dog, Hooch, is 3. So that's a little bit about me. I am excited to start this blogging journey and meet new people.
